Thanks for pointing this out!
The devfreq device I tested with (a Mali GPU) uses descending order
for some reason, and I assumed that's the usual order.
https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromiumos/third_party/kernel/+/chromeos-4.4/drivers/gpu/arm/midgard/backend/gpu/mali_kbase_devfreq.c#208
It seems the ordering doesn't have any impact beyond this patch. If
the order isn't mandatory for drivers that set up their own freq_table
we should probably support both cases to be safe.

Agreed, better use the same format, I'll update it in the next revision.
